List of diagnoses from House (TV series)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

For the most part, this list could also be named List of episode resolutions of House (TV series), and it appears to be a strange mix of WP:NOTDIRECTORY and WP:NOTPLOT. We don't keep lists for CSI-like resolutions (Who was the murderer?), and I fail to see how House is different. – sgeureka t•c 09:43, 11 November 2019 (UTC) – sgeureka t•c 09:43, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - A rare example of something that isn't only just non-notable, but for which it is virtually impossible for it to be notable. Whilst there certainly is coverage (though not necessarily significant coverage in reliable sources) of these diagnoses, this is already covered in the list of episodes and so this is just a duplication/fork. FOARP (talk) 11:36, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:LISTN. Not only are the items not individually notable, but they have not been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources. ——  SN  54129  12:02, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Random trivia, and a pointless split when the episodes cover them anyway. TTN (talk) 14:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep This easily passes WP:LISTN because there is, of course, detailed coverage such as The Medical Science of House, M.D. and The Most (And Least) Medically Accurate Episodes Of 'House, M.D.'. Claims that the topic is trivial are blatant prejudice contrary to core policy and are also false as these shows are used to teach medicine.  Andrew D. (talk) 15:17, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete House (season 4), etc. already list the diagnoses with each episode. If you think it's relevant that a medical TV show teaches about medicine, a mere list of diagnoses is not how to do it! If you want to discuss how medically accurate the show is, a mere list of diagnoses is not how to do it! Reywas92Talk 19:48, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Whether or not this information is notable, the diagnoses are already covered in the articles for each season of House. As FOARP and Reywas92 already state, this article is simply WP:REDUNDANT. Tenpop421 (talk) 20:56, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Just a fork of the results of each episode in the series. Completely WP:REDUNDANT and a trivial list.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 07:52, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Per FOARP, Serial Number 54129, and WP:REDUNDANT. aboideautalk 14:56, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. The individual articles on each season already cover this information, making this list redundant.  Rorshacma (talk) 16:58, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Aoba47 (talk) 19:23, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
 * IT IS LUPUS- no it's never lupus. Except that one time that it was. Seriously though, delete because the diagnosis of this week's patient is already covered in the corresponding episode plot summary. Reyk YO! 22:45, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
